For instance, I have an ajax-powered poll, an ajax-powered search and an
ajax-powered login form. I would rather have a "loading..." text to
appear in each of those components instead of a single "loading..."
somewhere on the page (like gmail does, for instance - i hate that :) ).
So I would really like to do something like:
function search()
{
$.load(
$("myid"),
url,
params,
{
onStart: function(){searchLoader.show();},
onEnd: function(){searchLoader.hide();}
}
);
}
function pollSubmit()
{
$.post(
$.post(
url,
params,
{
onStart: function(){pollLoader.show();},
onEnd: function(){pollLoader.hide();}
}
);
)
}
etc...
I guess I'll have to write a plugin :))
